Top 20 Trump Executive Orders As of Today

I asked Grok. It answered with an impressive list, which I edited only to add the required 25% snark.

1. Withdrawal from the Paris Climate Agreement – Trump announced the U.S. withdrawal from the international climate accord, reversing Biden’s rejoining of this agreement. In protest, the hosts of the television show The View all wore bags over their heads.

   

   

2. Pardons for January 6th Defendants – Trump pardoned about 1,500 people charged in the January 6, 2021, Capitol riot, including some high-profile cases. When the full story comes out on 1/6, people will be stunned. Complete weaponization of government.
3. Rescinding Biden’s Executive Actions – Trump rescinded 78 executive actions and orders from the Biden administration, covering a broad range of policies from environmental to social issues.

   

   

4. Ending Birthright Citizenship – An attempt to end birthright citizenship for children born to undocumented immigrants, though this has faced immediate legal challenges.

   

   

   

5. Border Security and Immigration – Signed multiple orders aimed at securing the U.S. border, including reinstating policies like “Remain in Mexico” and declaring a national emergency at the border.

   

   

   

6. Suspending Refugee Resettlement – Trump signed an order to suspend the U.S. Refugee Admissions Program.

   

7. Revoking Gender Identity Recognition – An order recognizing only two sexes, male and female, on official documents, impacting transgender rights. Question: if you’re older than 30, can you imagine this headline growing up?

   

8. Delaying TikTok Ban – Trump issued an executive order pausing the enforcement of the TikTok ban for 75 days to allow further review.

   

   

9. Revoking Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Initiatives – Orders to dismantle DEI programs within the federal government within 60 days. Shocking: merit-based Americanism enforced.

   

   

10. Federal Hiring Freeze – Trump signed an order for a hiring freeze across the federal government, with exceptions for certain sectors like national security and immigration enforcement.

    

11. Withdrawal from the World Health Organization – Trump ordered the U.S. withdrawal from the WHO, echoing his first-term action. The WHO is culpable for a wide range of skullduggerous actions. Yes, I said skullduggerous.

    

    

12. Restoring the Death Penalty – Trump reinstated the federal death penalty, directing its use for certain severe crimes. I have a few additional crimes to suggest.

    

13. Ending Catch and Release – An order to end the practice of “catch and release” at the southern border.

    

14. Designating Drug Cartels as Foreign Terrorist Organizations – Trump signed an order to define drug cartels as foreign terrorist organizations.

    

15. Federal Workers Back to Office – An order requiring federal employees to return to in-office work, ending remote work policies. It’s a great move and will preserve the value of downtown real estate. Second step: every agency must move out of DC to the various states. States should be able to lobby with incentives for these agencies.

    

16. Reinstating “Schedule F” – Reviving an executive order from his first term to make it easier to fire certain federal employees who defy orders from the Commander-In-Chief.

    

17. Regulatory Freeze – Trump issued an order to freeze many new or pending federal regulations.

    

18. Renaming Geographic Features – Orders to rename the Gulf of Mexico to Gulf of America and revert Denali’s name to Mount McKinley.

    

    

19. Revoking Biden’s Electric Vehicle Mandate – Trump revoked an order setting a goal for 50% of US vehicle sales to be electric by 2030.

    

20. Energy Emergency Declaration – Trump declared an energy emergency to promote domestic fossil fuel production.

    

America’s 250th birthday party is going to be lit.
